TEXT AND TYPOGRAPHY 


INTRODUCTORY 


The gathering which I now offer to the American public is chiefly 
composed of articles purchased by me, in recent years, from noteworthy 
South American collections, and comprises Porcelains, Majolicas, 
Bronzes, Ivories and works in gold, silver and enamels. 

In 1918 one of the best known South American collections, that 
of Sefior Ricardo Zamborain, was dispersed in Buenos Aires. Sefior 
Zamborain was the Jeading connoisseur of South America, where he 
held a position fairly comparable to that of the late Pierpont Morgan 
in this country, and, after his death, his collection was valued, for pro- 
bate, at 28,000,000 Argentine pesos. Many of the objects I now offer 
were purchased at the Zamborain Sale. A majority of my bronzes, 
including examples by Rodin, Barye and Méne, were procured in Paris 
by the well-known expert, Georges Berheim, and were sold at the Wit- 
comb Sale in Beunos Aires. Many of my eighteenth century French 
porcelains I acquired from Messrs. Jansen and Co., who have a New 
York agency. They were originally bought, chiefly at the Hotel 
Drouot, by an employee of that house who was considered, in Paris, 
as one of the best judges in France of porcelains of this description. 
I may point out that the sets are of peculiar interest, as being abso- 
lutely complete, unbroken and in generally excellent condition. Per- 
haps, however, the most important feature of my collection will be 
found in the white glazed figures of old porcelain, for nowadays it is 
almost impossible to find such pieces which were treasured by the old 
managers and their successors as models. Quite recently, however, I 
met with an opportunity of obtaining them. The Italian antique 
dealer, Mr. Felcher, closed his business before the war and disposed of 
his collection at a great sale from which, however, he excluded these 
pieces, hoping that they would remain among the possessions of his 
family. But my long acquaintance with him prevailed and, eventually, 
he disposed of them to me. They were selected for him, in Paris, by a 
friend of the Mansard family, direct descendants of the famous archi- 
tect of that name, and they are all uninjured and unique. I feel con- 
vinced that they will attract the attention of American collectors, who 
are fully aware that all works of art are continually increasing in 
value, and that, for instance, the Sévres directors of to-day are buying 
back, at fabulous sums, the most noteworthy old-time productions of 
their kilns. 

Enrique L. Hentor. 


THE HENIOT COLLECTION 


Mr. Enrique L. Heniot, whose collection is here catalogued pre- 
paratory to being offered at Public Sale, is a well-known antiquary of 
South America. His grandfather was in that business, and so was 
his father, who was forced to leave Poland in the sixties to settle him- 
self in Paris, where he soon gained a distinguished connection with 
South America, more especially with the countries of Chile, Brazil and 
Argentina. Mr. Heniot began his career when almost a boy and many 
years ago he established himself in Buenos Aires, where he took up 
the connection established by his father and largely added to it. 

The part of his collection which he now offers to the public in- 
cludes examples of Egyptian, Roman and Venetian glass, Tanagra 
terra-cottas, ivory and wood carvings, rock crystals and enamels, 
European porcelains, bronzes and eighteenth century bibelots. 

At his request, and in view of the unusual nature of some pieces, 
which are such as have seldom, if ever, been offered here at public sale, 
he has been permitted to place a minimum upset-price upon certain of 
these examples. These are distinguished in the catalogue by an aster- 
isk, and the upset-price at which these items may be started will be 
announced at the time of the sale. But whether this upset-price will 
be placed at all depends entirely upon the interest taken by the pub- 
lic in the preceding offerings. It is hoped that these pieces, including 
the white glazed porcelain figures, will appeal to the Directors of 
Museums and to private collectors. 


AMERICAN ArT ASSOCIATION. 


CONDITIONS OF SALE 


1. Any bid which is merely a nominal or fractional advance may 
be rejected by the auctioneer, if, in his Judgment, such bid would be 
likely to affect the sale injuriously. 

2. The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and if any dispute arise 
between two or more bidders, the auctioneer shall either decide the same 
or put up for re-sale the lot so in dispute. 

3. Payment shall be made of all or such part of the purchase 
money as may be required, and the names and addresses of the pur- 
chasers shall be given immediately on the sale of every lot, in default 
of which the lot so purchased shall be immediately put up again and 
re-sold. 

Payment of that part of the purchase money not made at the 
time of sale shall be made within ten days thereafter, in default of 
which the undersigned may either continue to hold the lots at the 
risk of the purchaser and take such action as may be necessary for 
the enforcement of the sale, or may at public or private sale, and 
without other than this notice, re-sell the lots for the benefit of such 
purchaser, and the deficiency (if any) arising from such re-sale shall 
be a charge against such purchaser. 

4. Delivery of any purchase will be made only upon payment 
of the total amount due for all purchases at the sale. 

Deliveries will be made on sales days between the hours of 9 
A. M. and 1 P. M., and on other days—except holidays—between the 
hours of 9 A. M. and 5 P. M. 

Delivery of any purchase will be made only at the American Art 
Galleries, or other place of sale, as the case may be, and only on pre- 
senting the bill of purchase. 

Delivery may be made, at the discretion of the Association, of 
any purchase during the session of the sale at which it was sold. 

5. Shipping, boxing or wrapping of purchases is a business in 


which the Association is in no wise engaged, and will not be performed 


by the Association for purchasers. The Association will, however, 
afford to purchasers every facility for employing at current and 
reasonable rates carriers and packers; doing so, however, without any 
assumption of responsibility on its part for the acts and charges of 
the parties engaged for such service. 

6. Storage of any purchase shall be at the sole risk of the pur- 
chaser. Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, and 
thereafter, while the Association will exercise due caution in caring 
for and delivering such purchase, it will not hold itself responsible if 
such purchase be lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed. 

Storage charges will be made upon all purchases not removed 


within ten days from the date of the sale thereof. 


7. Guarantee is not made either by the owner or the Association 
of the correctness of the description, genuineness or authenticity of any 
lot, and no sale will be set aside on account of any incorrectness, 
error of cataloguing, or any imperfection not noted. . Every lot is 
on public exhibition one or more days prior to its sale, after which 
it is sold “‘as is” and without recourse. 

The Association exercises great care to catalogue every lot cor- 
rectly, and will give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy 
expert to the effect that any lot has been incorrectly catalogued, and, 
in its judgment, may either sell the lot as catalogued or make mention 
of the opinion of such expert, who thereby would become responsible 
for such damage as might result were his opinion without proper 


foundation.

weak milk and water resembles undiluted milk. The opalescence is given 
by the addition to the molten glass of phosphate of lime in the form of bone 


ash and the ash of deer’s antlers. Its manufacture was begun late in the 
seventeenth or early in the eighteenth century. +

Height, 3 inches; length, 4144 inches; width, 314%, inches. 


“K. P. M.” are the letters which distinguish the first period of the manu- 
facture of Meissen (porcelain), and used only on those pieces made for the 
King’s use. The piece in question was made when Johann Friedrich Bottger 
was apprenticed to Master Walther de Tschirnhaus and entered the private 
laboratory of the Elector of Saxony, Frederick August. Bdottger discovered 
the red earth (terra-cotta) which he used in his stoneware and in making the 
white porcelain (kaolin) of Aue, near Schneeberg. As the Elector was a 
collector “emeritus” of Chinese and Japanese porcelains, attempts were made 
to copy this style in the manufacture of porcelain, as is proved by this piece. 
The methods used in manufacturing the porcelain were kept secret in every 
way possible, and the factory was closed in inside of a fortress called 
“Albrechtsburg” at Meissen, and it was only in 1709 and 1710 that samples 
of this porcelain were shown to the public, at the Fair of Leipzig. Bottger 
died in 1719.

TOINETTE BY Mapamer Ler Brun (1755-1842) 
Eighteenth Century 


Oval shape. Full-face view of Queen Marie Antoinette, with 
hazel-colored eyes and powdered hair. She wears a white lace 
bertha and a light purplish gray dress with epauletted shoulders, 
and at her bosom is a flower. Blue background. In gold frame, 
with back of silver pierced and chased in a pattern of diamond 
trellising surrounding a basket of flowers and a looped ribbon. 
Signed “‘vighE LE BrUN 1781.” 

Length, 2 inches; width, 11% inches. 


Note: Madame Le Brun, née Vigée, painted her first portrait of Marie 
Antoinette in 1779. After that she painted the Queen, with whom she was 
on terms of great intimacy, no fewer than twenty-five times. After the 
Revolution in 1789, she visited Italy, Austria, Russia, England and Switzer- 
land, but finally returned to Paris. 

Mme. Vigée Le Brun painted only a dozen miniatures, one of which is in 
the collection of the Baroness E, de Rothschild, two at the Ermitage Museum 
(Petrograd), and the one here mentioned. The others cannot be located.

to the front and with a central rosette of green and red and yel-

and repeats the hours and quarters. 


Diameter, 2 inches. 


Note: This watch is of peculiar interest. It was made, in 1787, by Lepine, 
the celebrated watchmaker, to the order of Queen Marie Antoinette, who 
intended to present it to the Princesse de Lamballe, the superintendent of her 


household, who subsequently shared her imprisonment in the Temple. 


accompanied by three documents which fully establish its authenticity. The 
first, which is signed by M. R. Gouget Desfontaines, describes the watch in 
detail and refers to the numbers of years during which it has been in the 
possession of his family. The second is signed by the maker of the watch, 
Jean Antoine Lepine. It gives the number of the watch and states that it was 
made for the Queen, Marie Antoinette, in the year 1787. The third is signed 
by the Commissioner of the Police of the Quarter and attests to the signature 
of Lepine on the second document. A full account of Jean Antoine Lepine 
is to be found in “Old Clocks and Watches,” by F. J. Britten, 1911, on 


page 700.

Clear white blown glass. Wine jug blown in the shape of a Nef, 
or ship, with shaped, incurved body having fluted sides decorated, 
in relief, with rosettes and masks, projecting cylindrical spout 
and voluted, flat looped handle with pear-shaped thumbpiece, 
on incurved cylindrical stem with gadrooned knop and spreading 
circular foot. At stem two tall incurved masts of glass fila- 
ments, fashioned in a diamond trellis pattern, with twisted 
trumpet-shaped corrugated shell as finial. At bows a lower erec- 
tion similarly formed. 

Height, 121% inches. 


Note: That the Venetians, essentially a maritime community, as the annual 
ceremony of the wedding of the Adriatic by their Doge and their reliance 
upon ships for their commercial prosperity go to prove, should have made 
them an integral part of all their decorative schemes is not surprising. The 
Nef, generally in silver and very seldom in glass, appeared at their banquets 
as well as at those of other nations, as is shown in Hans von Scheweichen’s 
account of a banquet in Augsburg at the house of Max Frugger in 1575 
(Robert Smith, p. 75). Glass Nefs were so rare that the only examples on 
public view in Europe are those in the British and the Berlin Museums. In 
the making of pieces such as this, extraordinary manual dexterity was de- 
manded of the glass blower.

Note: Bernard Palissy, the enthusiastic potter of the sixteenth century, 
seems rarely to have signed his “Rustiques Figulines,’ as he called his works 
of this class. The dish modeled after the pewter plaque by Francois Briot 
he signed with Briot’s monogram, “F. B.”; other dishes he signed with the 
royal fleur-de-lis and one important piece bears the initials “ V. A. B. C.” 
Palissy also marked his dishes with the double “BB.” Being extremely 
honest, he often used the initials of the person who inspired him when affixing 
his signature. The initials appended to the dish here catalogued may, from 
their prominence, refer to the person for whom it was made.

with a smile upon her face, to the whispered confidence of Pan, 
who is shown with the head of a man with pointed beard, his lips 
parted and a cynical smile illumining his features. Below is a

Note: Though Claude Michel (1788-1814), who preferred to be known by 
his assumed name of Clodion, worked largely in terra-cotta, ‘he is known to 
have executed some important works in bronze, as well as many mountings 
in the same metal. Of the former, that here catalogued is a noteworthy 
example. “The Birth of Love” has been suggested as its title by the present 
owner, in reference to the intimate advice which is being whispered to the 
Bacchante by the bust of Pan.
